woah! I just realised. it cant be that small, unless the AT's have magnifying glasses :smile:

I recon this whole 'reducing' thing is just the AT's way of making sure people don't write tons about themselves....assuming they even read them :rolleyes:

PQ is UKL/TSR's stats queen! She's very helpful when it comes to questions on UCAS.

which comes to about wat size?

I have no idea. it's small, but can be read (TNR 12). I'll check out what font size 11.5 and 10 look like on reduced size...

UCAS must be nuts.

I can imagine the AT holding a magnifying glass and reading our PS haha

Ok, presuming that reducing it in the aforementioned way is how the AT's see it:

TNR 12 - Very readable

TNR 11 - Quite a bit smalller. Still readable, but a noticable difference from 12

TNR 10 - Tiny but readable. Might be an idea to supply a magnifying glass with this copy, just incase the AT doesn't have good eyesight.

With some sticky back plastic, of course :wink:

Seriously, if you are using TNR 10 (if reducing it this way gives a realistic impression) it is readable, but I would only use if you really need the space.

I am going to use point 12. how did you work out how the AT's are going to see it?
